[36344933] The actual device was not returned to the manufacturer for evaluation. Us local authorized service ((b)(4) personnel) checked the actual suspected device unit at customer site on behalf of manufacturer on january 19th 2015. Cynosure service technician evaluated the device for calibration and performance of laser and accessories. The cellulaze-slt ii unit and relevant accessories were determined to be operating properly within their specifications. No failure detected ((b)(4) service report (b)(4)). Treatment parameters used by physician were within clinical guidelines. Since this event took place about 3. 5 years ago on 05/24/2012, the authorized service verified that there is no pending issue with the slt ii device. It was last checked in january 2015 without any problems since then ((b)(4) service report is (b)(4) dated 01/19/2015). Moreover, since the last service visit, the unit is correctly working without any pending issue. Because of this, there was no further service report created. Currently, no additional service visit or device returning is required for this event. The investigation carried out did not conclude that a design deficiency or device malfunctioning was responsible for causing the event. Rather, it could be assumed that there was a human factors issue, where a failure to appropriately use the device, contributed to event. Scarring and skin and fat tissue necrosis are expected adverse effects from laser treatments to the anatomic district of the laser procedure as reported by slt ii operator manual code om094e1_g. V05 (revision valid at the date of event) at section 9 "clinical applications - adverse effects". The same anticipated adverse effects are also reported in the clinical reference guide (code 921-7014-001), provided by (b)(4) together with the device, at chapter 2 "clinical application - adverse effects". Moreover, the operator's manual specifies (section 1 - "introduction") that this device is intended for the use by a licensed practitioner with experience in the field of liposuction and lipolysis treatments. No failure detected on the actual device evaluated. Device working within specs. No remedial actions required. El. En. Electronic engineering s. P. A. , manufacturer of the device, recorded only one similar event before, compared to more than (b)(4) units installed on the field worldwide for slt ii family models from 2008 to date and tens of thousands of treatments performed. This initial report is to be considered as final report, unless fda has further questions.
